'''Flower coins''' are purple collectible items that first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''. They are a special type of [[coin]] native to the [[Flower Kingdom]], and are an alternative to regular coins in a similar fashion to [[regional coin]]s from ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

==History==
===''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''===
Flower coins make their official debut in ''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''. Like coins, flower coins can be found throughout courses, and add to their own individual counter when collected. The player can hold up to 999 flower coins.{{footnote|main|a}}

During many [[Wonder Effect]]s, smaller variants of flower coins appear, each worth one-tenth of a regular flower coin and incrementing the flower coin counter by 0.1 when collected. In the course [[Condarts Away!]], when the [[Wonder Effect]] is active, these smaller coins will attempt to run away when characters get too close; they flip to reveal a pair of eyes and squirm away slowly. These coins usually disappear when a [[Wonder Seed]] is collected and the Wonder Effect ends. The flower coin counter then becomes an integer again, truncating the decimal part.

Three [[10-flower coin]]s, worth ten normal flower coins each,  appear in most levels. If the same coin is collected again during a replay of a level, it will instead grant three flower coins.
If the player gets a [[Game Over]], they lose 25% of their flower coins as a penalty (but no more than 50 flower coins total).

Flower coins can be spent in [[Poplin Shop]]s, allowing the player to purchase [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, [[Badge (Super Mario Bros. Wonder)|badges]], [[standee]]s and [[Wonder Seed]]s. Additionally, some [[Poplin]]s require flower coins to fix bridges and destroy rocks on the world map.

===''Super Mario Run''===

Flower coins reappeared during the second ''Super Mario Bros. Wonder'' event in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' from December 20, 2023 to March 15, 2024. When Coin Rush was activated by a [[Wonder Flower]] during a Toad Rally, [[Pink Coin (Super Mario Run)|Pink Coin]]s were replaced with flower coins. In addition, a flower coin appeared as one of the stamps on the Stamp Cards.

===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
Some flower coins can be seen in the version 13.0.2 of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' in the background of the "Showtime and Wonder Spirits!" spirit event banner.
